I attended the 2014 International Sound and Sight Exhibition held at the Parkroyal on Kitchener Road on 30th Nov. The turn-out was pretty good even on the third and last day of the Exhibition, even with the $15 entry fee which includes a free sample CD and a glass of red wine.

I was pretty impressed by some of the latest designs and technology. Sony led the way with a $62,000 short throw projector which can be situated only 7 inches from the screen, and yet produce a 140" image at 4K resolution!

Yamaha had some good speakers like the LSX-170 which produces good sound as well as lighting at a price of $549.

Another Yamaha designer piece, the Relit LSX-700 at $799.

I was also attracted to the B&O H6 headphones.

Of course, B&O headphones don't come cheap at a promotional price of $548.
